Chapter 156: Most Beautiful School Beauty

The clothing industry is currently in its peak season. After a month and a half of operations, the revenue from Yancheng Clothing Factory and the online store has repeatedly hit new highs, with daily earnings almost consistently above 40,000.

Of course, with the current traffic volume on Taobao, it is impossible to absorb the factory's entire output; excess inventory is moved through offline channels, handed over to distributors and wholesalers to handle.

Or, they take on some production orders to strive for maximum factory efficiency.

After deducting operating costs, the funds Shen Yan can currently mobilize are around two million. If he uses some leverage and things go smoothly, another millionaire will soon be born.

Seeing Shen Yan tapping the table and lost in thought, completely ignoring her, Wu Yueer couldn't help but feel a bit aggrieved. She nudged Shen Yan with her elbow and asked, "Is Shanghai fun? What places did you go to?"

On Saturday morning, she had sent Shen Yan a message saying her leg was injured and asked him to buy an extra portion when he went grocery shopping. She never expected this guy to take his girlfriend off to Shanghai to have a good time, which made her so angry her chest ached.

All he knows is eating, drinking, and having fun all day—not doing his proper work!

She wanted to go too.

Before Shen Yan could reply, Lin Yang spoke up first: "Who knows Shanghai better than me? The Pearl Tower and The Bund are worth visiting... Yue'er, how about we all group up and go there during the New Year's holiday?"

"That's a good suggestion, I'll consider it." Wu Yueer's peach-blossom eyes began to spin around.

Immediately, she looked at Shen Yan again: "What places did you go to? Was it fun?"

"About the same as what Lao Lin said: the Oriental Pearl Tower, taking a cruise on The Bund, Disney Resort, and eating and drinking on Nanjing Road. It felt pretty good," Shen Yan said truthfully.

Wu Yueer's eyes lit up as she listened, while Lin Yang was dumbfounded: "That trip must have cost you at least two or three thousand."

He was just talking big; he had mentioned relatively affordable places, but Shen Yan had gone all out, playing with whatever was most expensive.

Shen Yan indicated that when you go out to have fun, you shouldn't feel bad about the money; being happy is what matters most.

"Awesome!" Lin Yang gave a thumbs up, secretly wondering to himself what kind of family background Shen Yan had—all his bonuses were used to buy a house and a car, and now he was still so lavish with his spending.

Hearing this, Wu Yueer touched her little wallet, and for a moment, she felt like dying. She had squandered her savings buying a phone last time and had only just recovered.

Play my foot!

As if thinking of something, Wu Yueer said again, "You definitely haven't been paying attention to the forum. Videos of people imitating our dance have been spreading everywhere these past two days."

Shen Yan didn't care at all. "Let them imitate if they want. We were imitating someone else too, anyway."

"But someone here has really stolen the spotlight this time, tsk tsk! The Most Beautiful School Beauty."

A rare blush appeared on Wu Yueer's pretty face.

After the Welcome Gala, Wu Yueer became an instant hit across the entire campus. Almost everywhere she went, people recognized her: "You're that girl who danced with Brother Rice Noodle, right? You're so pretty!"

"Are you and Brother Rice Noodle a couple?"

"Your boyfriend is so handsome, I'm so envious of you!"

The boys were fine; intimidated by Wu Yueer's reputation as a "little chili pepper," they only peeked at her peerless beauty from afar. The girls, however, had no such reservations; they would come up and shower her with flattery, asking how they could find such a handsome and outstanding boyfriend.

To their questions, Wu Yueer neither admitted nor denied it, maintaining a surprisingly kind attitude, saying that one day they would also meet their ideal Prince Charming.

As a result, not only were the boys obsessed with Wu Yueer's beauty, but the girls also felt that Wu Yueer was as gentle as water, and that her fiery temper was only directed at those annoying flies.

So much so that Wu Yueer's ranking on the School Beauty Ranking soared rapidly, and she captured the title of "Most Beautiful School Beauty" in one fell swoop.

Actually, Wu Yueer didn't really care for this title, but that sense of self-satisfaction couldn't stop rising—I am the most beautiful flower at Hangzhou University.

Lin Yang deeply agreed with this title and chimed in: "Actually, most of the girls on the School Beauty Ranking are just for show; they look too different from their photos. Among all the people I've seen, I reckon only Hao Anqi can be mentioned in the same breath as Yue'er."

Wu Yueer rolled her eyes, having the urge to kick this idiot away. Why bring that up now? At a time like this, shouldn't he be praising her as the most beautiful in the world instead of talking about Hao Anqi?

Shen Yan shook his head slightly; with that kind of emotional intelligence, it would be hard for him to find a girlfriend.

Just then, his phone vibrated slightly; it was a message from Yu Youwei.

"You probably haven't checked the group messages. Tonight, the Law School has invited outstanding seniors from the legal profession to give a lecture, and attendance is mandatory for everyone. Also, leaders will be visiting the student dorms over the next two days, and everyone is required to be present."

Shen Yan: "Thanks! I really haven't been checking the group messages much."

Yu Youwei: "Don't be so polite with me (smiley face)... By the way, has that woman looked for you these past two days?"

Shen Yan: "No, forget about her!"

Yu Youwei let out a soft sigh of relief. What she feared most was Shen Yan losing his composure and his mind. Looking at it now, he was as calm and collected as ever.

But just thinking about the news she learned from Yuan Mingqing, Yu Youwei couldn't help but feel sour. That detestable vixen, actually pestering Shen Yan to go to Shanghai and spend money lavishly.

If it were before, the one accompanying Shen Yan should have been her.

Since entering university, Yu Youwei spent every day either studying or busy with Student Union and class affairs, wishing she could split herself in two; she simply had no time to go out and have fun.

Sometimes she even doubted whether it was worth it, why make herself so tired, but this thought usually vanished in a flash. Without the hard work of early cultivation, how could one wait for the time to blossom and bear fruit?

The hardship was only temporary; the good days were still ahead.

With nothing to do, Wu Yueer scrolled through her feed repeatedly, but didn't find the news she wanted to see, and her brows couldn't help but furrow slightly.

Doesn't that Hao Anqi love posting these things the most? Why haven't there been any updates recently?

Turning her head, she saw Shen Yan playing a game she had never seen before. A pea-shooter was constantly firing bullets, and a monster resembling a zombie was slowly approaching.

Wu Yueer had no guard against Shen Yan; she leaned her head directly in front of Shen Yan's chest, watching him play with great interest.

"What game is this? It doesn't seem very interesting."

Her hair, carrying the scent of high-end shampoo, poured straight into Shen Yan's nose. It smelled quite good, and Shen Yan couldn't help but take a few extra breaths, simply replying, "Plants vs. Zombies."

Although she said it wasn't interesting, Wu Yueer watched with great enthusiasm, and as the game's difficulty gradually increased, her eyes became increasingly bright and dazzling, as if they were the brightest stars in the night sky.

"What did you say the game was called again? I'll download it too."

"Plants vs. Zombies!"

"Hey, slow down your movements, I can't see clearly."

"If I go any slower, I'll die!"

Watching the two of them showing off their phones and having a great time, then looking at the piece of junk in his own hand, Lin Yang suddenly had the urge to throw it away.

What is this thing!
